Objective To understand the testing performance of drug manufacturers and testing institute in Yunnan province by organizing proficiency testing of microbiological examination of non-sterile drugs,and to improve the testing performance and quality management level of participants by interpretation of unsatisfactory results.Methods According to the requirements of relevant China National Accreditation Service for Conformity Assessment (CNAS),preparation values of positive or negative was determined as assigned values for qualitative items,and the median value was as assigned value for enumeration items.Using robust statistical methods and Z-score for assessment,if all the 4 items were satisfactory,it would be assessed as overall satisfactory performance,and contrariwise,it would be assessed as unsatisfactory performance.If partial item were satisfactory,it would be assessed as partially satisfactory performance.Results 152 laboratories participated in this proficiency testing program,116 laboratories obtained satisfactory performance and the satisfactory rate was 76.31％;33 laboratories obtained partially satisfactory performance,and the partially satisfactory rate was 21.71％;3 laboratories obtained unsatisfactory performance and the unsatisfactory rate was 1.97％.To classify the participants with type,the satisfactory rate for drug control institute was 88.23％ and the satisfactory rate of drug manufacturers was 74.81％.Conclusion The testing performance of participating laboratories in microbiological examination of non-sterile drugs is generally good,which can ensure the smooth implementation of the program and the accuracy and effectiveness of the results.The testing capacity and quality management level of a few laboratories need to be improved.

Tumor progression is closely related to tumor tissue metabolism and reshaping of the microenvironment. Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), a representative hypoxic tumor, has a heterogeneous internal metabolic environment. To clarify the relationship between different metabolic regions and the tumor immune microenvironment (TME) in OSCC, Single cell (SC) and spatial transcriptomics (ST) sequencing of OSCC tissues were performed. The proportion of TME in the ST data was obtained through SPOTlight deconvolution using SC and GSE103322 data. The metabolic activity of each spot was calculated using scMetabolism, and k-means clustering was used to classify all spots into hyper-, normal-, or hypometabolic regions. CD4T cell infiltration and TGF-β expression is higher in the hypermetabolic regions than in the others. Through CellPhoneDB and NicheNet cell-cell communication analysis, it was found that in the hypermetabolic region, fibroblasts can utilize the lactate produced by glycolysis of epithelial cells to transform into inflammatory cancer-associated fibroblasts (iCAFs), and the increased expression of HIF1A in iCAFs promotes the transcriptional expression of CXCL12. The secretion of CXCL12 recruits regulatory T cells (Tregs), leading to Treg infiltration and increased TGF-β secretion in the microenvironment and promotes the formation of a tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment. This study delineates the coordinate work axis of epithelial cells-iCAFs-Tregs in OSCC using SC, ST and TCGA bulk data, and highlights potential targets for therapy.
